Early Baptist Churches of Northamptonshire

Northamptonshire was the focus of substantial growth in this group of Dissenters during the mid 18th century. Most well documented are the origins of the Northamptonshire Baptist Association in 1763, from which the Baptist Missionary Society traces its origins.

The chapels shown on this map are all classified as Baptist but are from two groups, the Missionary Baptists or “Fullerites” and the Strict Baptists.
